Can you grab the output of /var/log/messages from the time you start
NetworkManager to the time it successfully activates the connection to
the SMC?  I'll need to see what options the router passes back in the
DHCP options fields of the DHCP response packet, it might well be that
its passing back two "routersOnSubnet" options.

Otherwise, can you make sure that you don't have any other system-level
scripts running for this interface?  (ie, on Fedora systems, make sure
you don't have an /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-<your wireless
card>).
